Your claim was how does “anyone” pay $10k for insurance. It doesn’t matter what you pay. The answer is older people in high cost of living places.

And insurance is just insurance. out of pocket maximum is usually $10k+, so if you do need care, add that to premiums.

I did put a qualifier on that statement though, I said "unless". I doubt the average person is having constant surgeries, procedures, expensive tests or expensive medications every year.

Like I could see something happening in a year, but not every year.

Even without any healthcare events, anyone over 50 is facing close to or over $10k per year in health insurance costs.
